Season 6, Episode 19: How Growers Beat Rain, Rot, And Risk For A Strong Apple Year
Update: 2025-11-20
Description
Don, Kari, Shan, and Greg unpack the season’s rollercoaster: a soggy May that drove scab, rust, and bitter rot risk, followed by a dry, color‑rich harvest window. We lay out infection windows, what worked for Honeycrisp, why alternate row coverage backfired, and how to prep smarter for next season.
